More insights into the way things work on Galactica are always good. I enjoyed this episode, I liked how they addressed how bashed up the ship is among other things, although the ex-wife got a bit grating on the nerves a couple times heh. Actually, this episode taught me that you can survive longer in open space than I thought you could; I used to think that you only lived for a few seconds, but this episode lead me to discover that what Adama said about people having been known to live up to one minute in exposure is actually true.

Behold.... Battlestar Galactica : The Musical!

Quote
The producers of Battlestar Galactica have seized upon the recent renewal for a fourth series by announcing their most ambitious and surprising project yet - BSG: The Musical. Provisionally opening on Broadway in June 2008, the all-singing, all-dancing spectacular hopes to follow in the footsteps of such unlikely spin-off musical successes as The Producers, Spamalot and Stargate on Ice: The Sequel. Musical director Ron Moore is tight-lipped, but Tachyon TV can confirm that the show will be a condensed version of the television narrative, and that existing pop songs will be adapted lyrically for the show. The following tunes are already in the can:

* 'My Heart Will Go On (As Long As I'm in Range of A Resurrection Ship)'
* 'Tigh Your Motherfracker Down'
* 'Les Miserable Frackers'
* 'The Hills of Caprica Are Alive with the Sound of Nuclear Explosions'
* 'Helo, Is It Me You're Looking For...?'
* 'I Lost My Heart To A Colonial Trooper'
* 'Viper at the Gates of Dawn'
* 'Billy, Don't Be A Hero'

In addition to these break-out pop-hits Adama will growl his way through 'Wanderin' Battlestar' ("I'm in command, of a wanderin' Battlestar/ I'm in sole command of a wanderin' Battlestar/ Cylons try to shoot me, think I'm gonna crack/ I've never seen a Base Star that didn't look better lookin' back...").

Adama will also sing a heartfelt love song to President Roslin ('Tell Laura I Love Her') and Colonel Tigh will serenade his dead wife Ellen with 'Don't It Make My Brown Eye Blue'. Meanwhile, Baltar is set to croon a medley of tracks - 'You Were Always In My Mind'. 'I Can't Get You Out Of My Head' and 'Lady in Red' - to Number 6, while 'Boom-Bang-a-Boomer' is set to bring the house down when when Sharon shoots Adama at point blank range.

Moore has confirmed that the musical has lost none of the parent show's edge: "We are warning patrons that the first 16 rows may be covered in entrails".

* 'Helo, Is It Me You're Looking For...?'

reminds me of that old Lionel Ritchie song from the early 80's -
"Hello?  Is it me you're looking for?"

lol

lol...

btw, did you see the previews for next week's episode???

the chief, cally, and the rest of the engineering crew are gonna "mutiny", in the sense that they are tired of doing all the hard labour (sort of like the dispute on New Caprica right before the cylons came).

The irony is: Tyrol and Cally were saved by Adama just last week, and now there gonna turn 180 and stab him in the back. Heh.

That's a flashback to New Caprica. They're not striking like that per sey, it's just a flashback.

Maybe the next Helo ep will feature him actually following orders the entire time. :P

I thoroughly enjoyed this last episode. There were various subtle and also very suspenseful moments, such as the raptor losing control and heading for Colonial One. I thought that was brilliant. Also, I was wondering whether the Chief was going to call Adama's bluff or not. Although I think the 'strike' started and ended too quickly. It took about 5 minutes for it to start and finish. To finish off, Baltar may not be the most favourite character, but he is one good actor. He sure knew how to put on that Aerelon accent (I believe it was Aerelon).

Now about the next episode, "Maelstrom":

HOLY SHIT

watch the previews on www.scifi.com/battlestar

we're finally going to see some action, and looks like someone is going to die.

btw, in an interview with RDM, he mentioned that this episode would drastically change the flow of the show, perhaps one of the most shocking moments in the show yet. He also said that Starbuck would not return for the rest of the season (meaning the next episode is the last one from her. Does this indicate something?). He also mentioned that one of the cast member's names would not be included in the opening credits... makes you wonder huh?

I cant see Starbuck dying for some reason, but this looks like it will be a hell of an episode.

Also Dirty Hands was one of the best of the season so far, loved Adama playing the hard man like Roslin did in TaBFAYW.

like Roslin did in TaBFAYW.

She did what now?

Yeah next weeks episode looks killer, the Space channel here (Equilivent to the US's Sci-Fi, just not as many shows) They didn't show clips in there next week preview, they just put in a collection of old clips, I guess they want i it to be a surprise, or they haven't got the ep yet to do a Trailer.

Sorry, Taking a Break From All Your Worries, her angry scenes with Baltar are similar to the Adama 'kill Cally' scene.

I found it too hard to believe that anyone would read Baltar's book after what he did on New Caprica, especially Tyrol and Calli.  and what's this about Killing Starbuck? they wouldn't really do that, Would they?  He said that she wouldn't return for the rest of the season, so I'll bet they'll bring her back.

Forgot about that for a moment. ^_^

Maybe it's a longer arc this time?
